| The prohibition against special legislation will be practically a dead letter. As it is the practice in the Legislature to yield and grant any local measure asked by any representative in that body, it is only necessary to demand a particular enactment for a special purpose, and if there is no constitutional constraint, it is passed as a matter of course. The legislative discretion in such cases extend only to the representations of the member who is interested in the passage of the bill.

| all counties where the same circumstances exist must have the same form of government
| |
|
| |
| so that a law for one class can reasonably be
| |
| expected to work equally well for every member of the
| |
| class ; while, if it works ill, it is almost certain to do so in
| |
| every case, and that for some cause which lies deeper than
| |
| the mere fact that the law is general. The number of
| |
| places necessarily affected by a law prevents, moreover, the
| |
| enactment of laws designed in the interest of one place
| |
| only. If such a law be against the interest of the other
| |
| communities affected by it, they will oppose its passage, and
| |
| thus the unfair grant of special privileges will be prevented
| |
|
| |
| almost every local law affects people residing outside the locality, the
| |
| distinction between general and local laws would seem,
| |
| under the doctrine of these cases, to be very indefinite.
